Fabric Bags

MESSENGER & STADIUM BAGS, PURSES & CARRY-ALLS - I first design the bag by constructing a prototype from plain fabric.  Once perfected, it is deconstructed and a pattern is made from my prototype.  Each bag is then hand cut and sewn with individual care and attention to detail.  Appliqué, felt and other decorative items are also often incorporated into the various designs.  All of my bags are my own original designs and are made with high quality fabric. See below for more details on the different style of bags I make.

MESSENGER BAGS - Sized to carry a standard notebook or 1 inch 3 ring binder and basic essentials.  Several inside pockets keep your pens and pencils in place as well as keys and cell phone.  The shoulder strap is extra long to comfortably cross over to the opposite shoulder.  Each bag adds a little attitude with a special design on the front.  All silhouettes are hand cut and therefore slightly different from any others of the same style.  Lining fabric is novelty fabric to complement the exterior design.

UP-CYCLED T-SHIRT MESSENGER BAGS - Same as the regular messenger bags in style but made to incorporate an up-cycled t-shirt with complementary fabric to back the exterior design.

MESSENGER PURSE - Each bag is made of decor style design fabric.  Lining fabric is an alternate color to complement the exterior design.

STADIUM BAG - Great for games or picnics.  The outside fabric on the bottom of the bag is a water-resistant fabric that will resist soaking up spilled liquids or dew off the grass.  The top closes with a coat style zipper to allow full access when the top is open.  Double straps are sewn completely around the bottom to ensure safe transport of heavy items.  The straps and side seams separate a total of 6 outside pockets between the two fabrics.  The bag is approximately 14 inches high and 8 wide.

SMALL CARRY ALL - The outside fabric on the bottom of the bag is a patterned fabric which adds a little pizzazz to this double handle carry bag.  Double straps are sewn completely around the bottom to insure safe transport of heavy items.  The straps and side seams separate a total of 6 outside pockets between the two fabrics.  The bag is approximately 11 inches high and 5 inches wide.
